Hi!

We are facing problems to execute an EXE application remotely.

Our requirement is.....

1. We will have a server application which will first establish connection
and then initiate task with the client.

2. The client should respond to the server after each operation is
completed.

Please help us if you have an idea on it.

Both the client and server applications should be developed using vb.net.

Great Thanks,

Ujjwal.
 
Hi

When I understand you right you've got

a) An application already started, listening for requests (this on will be
called server)

b) Another application that will be started by user or automatically and will
send requests to a) (the server) and should get a response to show it or to
write a log file or so.


If above is correct, the easiest way to realize this is using .NET Remoting.
With remoting you can communicate with objects on the server by simply calling
the methods on these objects. This works because you only get a Proxy-object and
the real object lives on the server.

You will find a lot of material in the .NET SDK documentation about Remoting.


Hope that helps
Thomas
